In order to promote their newest star, a massive robot named Destructor, the Commissioner demands that Bender take on the persona of "The Gender Bender," and lose to the new recruit.

Now two of comic's most popular creators — writer Scott Lobdell and artist Leinil Yu, who've both worked on successful runs of Marvel's Uncanny X- Men — team up with inker Gerry Alanguilan on the latest CLIFFHANGER extravaganza…the 6-issue miniseries HIGH ROADS! It is the final days of World War II and all the free world is celebrating the impending end of the Third Reich. Everyone except U.S. Army Captain Nick Highroad, who is currently dangling from the side of a mansion carved out of ice at a secret Nazi compound located in the Arctic! How did he get there? And who are the diminutive English actor, the former Fuehrer's mistress, and the ex-kamikaze pilot who seem to be his only friends? How did they come up with their misguided plan to steal one of Hitler's most valued possessions out from under that tight little mustache of his…at a time when he's pretty distracted? And how is it these four desperate strangers suddenly find themselves involved in a plot to thwart the little dictator's Final Solution? Most (but not all!) of the answers may be found in HIGH ROADS #1! If you only know Lobdell's and Yu's work on Uncanny X-Men, be prepared for an all-new comics experience with this action/adventure genre series that captures all the fun, excitement and energy of an Indiana Jones movie — perfectly matching Lobdell's fast-paced dialogue with Yu's kinetic art style. HIGH ROADS is a series of miniseries, each one a completely self- contained adventure of high-impact, high-concept, high-drama: HIGH ROADS! This project is supported with a 4-color poster, house and trade ads, and a website promotion at www.wildstorm.com. HIGH ROADS is a 6-issue CLIFFHANGER PRODUCTIONS miniseries edited by Scott Dunbier.

And some of their teammates (plus all of their predecessors) have died in action. Now, a group of teens — whose talents have been honed in simulation after simulation — must face the greatest adventures of all within an all-too-real world of monsters and mysterious dangers! LAB RATS is a new ongoing series set in the DC Universe, written and drawn by fan-favorite John Byrne (SUPERMAN & BATMAN: GENERATIONS, JUST IMAGINE...ROBIN) — who is no stranger to telling thrilling stories of heroic, troubled youths facing seemingly unstoppable foes. In LAB RATS #1, readers are introduced to the research subjects of the "Campus," a scientific institution whose goals are unknown and methods are...unorthodox, to say the least. Exploiting the nothing-to-lose spirit of the teens who live there (nicknamed "Lab Rats" by one of the group's most disaffected members), the scientists of the Campus pit their test subjects against incredible dangers — including, in the first issue, dinosaurs! And while these simulations may not actually be real, they still cost the life of one of the kids! After that heartbreaking loss, the team is sent away from the Campus for a much- needed vacation. But the DC Universe is filled with threats to make these kids wish they'd never left the lab they called home. Unlike the young heroes of some of Byrne's acclaimed earlier team books (Uncanny X-Men, John Byrne's Next Men), the members of LAB RATS have no special powers to protect them. They do have an abundance of bravery, heroism, and personality that make their adventures even more thrilling! Down the road, the "Rats" meet a cast of characters that will include some familiar faces...including a certain Man of Steel! This experiment's just getting started and the results will surprise you! This project is supported with house and trade ads, and a website promotion at www.dccomics.com. LAB RATS is an ongoing series edited by Mike Carlin.

Now, the pieces he has left in his wake are coming together, and the results will shock and amaze readers…offering exciting new possibilities for the future of the Lantern legacy. GREEN LANTERN: LEGACY — THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF HAL JORDAN is a remarkable 112-page hardcover written by Joe Kelly (JLA, ACTION COMICS) and illustrated by Brent Anderson (KURT BUSIEK'S ASTRO CITY, Rising Stars) & Bill Sienkiewicz (Elektra: Assassin), chronicling the life of a tragic hero through his times of heroic bravery to his final attempt at redemption. Starting at Hal's funeral, LEGACY follows Tom Kalmaku, Hal's mechanic and confidant through his career as Green Lantern, and portrays the betrayal Tom felt after Hal's fall from grace. Tom then is left to deal with the greatest of Hal's legacies: a young boy claiming to be Hal's son, who has a connection to one of the universe's greatest powers. But first the pair must discover why a dark figure has come from outer space to make sure no descendant of Hal Jordan survives. Interweaving action and drama from Hal's heroic career with the reactions of loved ones, LEGACY is a sweeping tale of family, friends, vengeance…and redemption. This project is supported with house and trade ads.

We've witnessed the Man of Steel working side-by- side with Erik Larsen's Savage Dragon before in the SUPERMAN & SAVAGE DRAGON: METROPOLIS one-shot. But that wasn't the first time these two titanic heroes met! Larsen writes and pencils a pulse-pounding prequel story of their initial encounter with SUPERMAN & SAVAGE DRAGON: CHICAGO — a 48-page Prestige Format one-shot that's loaded with Larsen's quirky brand of action. Joined by inker Al Gordon (TOM STRONG) for the interiors, Larsen also pencils the arresting cover art that's painted by popular, multiple award-winning artist Alex Ross! A heaping helping of Metropolis heavies — including Metallo, Brainiac and Silver Banshee — have hightailed it to the Windy City to join forces with the Savage Dragon's major group of foes, the Vicious Circle. With such a united force of nasties on hand causing mayhem, the City of Tomorrow may not have a tomorrow. Now Superman must form an uneasy alliance with the Savage Dragon to rid two cities of two sets of super-villains! Just who is behind this riotous rampage that wrecks two towns?

AMERICAN CENTURY: HOLLYWOOD BABYLON TRADE PAPERBACK 1950s Hollywood: It's all lights, cameras, and action — and Harry Kraft sees it all in AMERICAN CENTURY: HOLLYWOOD BABYLON, the second collection of VERTIGO's critically acclaimed series. Written by Howard Chaykin & David Tischman, with art by Marc Laming, Dick Giordano, Warren Pleece, and John Stokes, and a painted cover by John Van Fleet, HOLLYWOOD BABYLON reprints AMERICAN CENTURY #5-9. Guarding the body of a sexy starlet, Harry soon is embroiled in the messy, behind-the-scenes (and between the sheets) dealings of Tinseltown. Rapacious movie stars, starry-eyed mobsters, sordid studio politics, and a high-profile kidnapping all collide on Sunset Boulevard when an opportunistic politician arrives, looking to rid America of the "Red Menace." And that's just the first reel. Completing this collection is Harry's escape from L.A. — an easy ride down the two-lane blacktop of Route 66 which explodes into a tale of murder and suspense at a roadside diner. HOLLYWOOD BABYLON is a blockbuster — punching the audience in the face with primal fear and raw sexuality that proves why this VERTIGO series has received rave reviews from Time.com, Entertainment Weekly and Booklist.

Midnight, Massachusetts really is. It may be the most haunted town in the world, making it an appropriate residence for husband-and-wife paranormal investigators Adam and Julia Kadmon. Welcome to MIDNIGHT, MASS — an 8-issue VERTIGO miniseries by writer John Rozum (XOMBI, The X-Files), artists Jesus Saís (JLA: BLACK BAPTISM) & Jimmy Palmiotti (The Punisher), and cover painter Tomer Hanuka — where vampires, ghosts, demons, and psychotic magicians are just business as usual for the Kadmons. It's a family business that stretches back for centuries, and Adam and Julia are reputed to be the best of the lot. They're so good that, for them, fighting monsters is as routine as running out for a gallon of milk. They don't mind, really — since it gives them more time to indulge in their heated romance with each other. Glamorous and adventurous, Adam and Julia are jet-setters of the paranormal. But suddenly, fighting monsters just isn't the same anymore. The newest generation of monsters is tired of hiding in caves and ruins on the boundaries of human civilization. Old and forgotten gods have decided to reassert themselves into our world, only to discover that new entities have filled their niches, beings that have no intention of relinquishing their thrones. Now Adam and Julia are facing new dangers, and in order to survive they bring on an assistant, Jenny Swan. As the story unfolds, we'll learn that Jenny has a dark secret in her past which might just be the key to the Kadmon's survival. What they unravel as family secrets emerge, alliances shift, friends die, and the entire purpose of their work comes into question, will determine their fate as a couple…or the fate of the world. Combining elements of horror, fantasy, romance, and mystery, MIDNIGHT, MASS is the latest VERTIGO miniseries to continue the tradition of providing chillingly provocative storylines. This project is supported with house and trade ads. MIDNIGHT, MASS is an 8-issue VERTIGO series edited by Heidi MacDonald and is suggested for mature readers.

JUST IMAGINE STAN LEE WITH SCOTT McDANIEL CREATING AQUAMAN In the first months of 2002, Stan Lee's JUST IMAGINE... universe has introduced two shocking new characters based on familiar DC names: Robin, an embittered teen with a surprising lack of connection to his world's Batman; and Shazam!, a man-monster unlike DC's "World's Mightiest Mortal." In April, Stan introduces perhaps his most daringly different JUST IMAGINE... take on a DC character yet, in JUST IMAGINE STAN LEE WITH SCOTT McDANIEL CREATING AQUAMAN! Joined by McDaniel (BATMAN, NIGHTWING) & inker Klaus Janson (BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS, BATMAN: THE 10-CENT ADVENTURE), Stan introduces Ramon Raymond — an environmentalist devoted to unlocking the mysteries of the oceans that cover the vast majority of the Earth's surface, and the power inherent in water, which makes up most of the human body. His research leads him to investigate the biological characteristics of animals that live underwater, and puts him in grave danger from a shark attack! Luckily, this attack takes place in the vicinity of the mysterious green mist that has played a vital part in other JUST IMAGINE... one-shots, causing Ramon to be transformed into a being unlike any other on Earth! Now Ramon can transform the mass of his body into water, project blasts of water from his hands, and function both under sea or on the land...an "Aquaman" capable of bringing those two worlds into harmony. But such harmony is not the goal of Reverend Dominic Darrk and his Church of Eternal Empowerment, which makes Raymond the target of Darrk's evil minions. Will the most powerful of the second "wave" of JUST IMAGINE... heroes be able to master his strange new abilities and defeat his enemies before Darrk's minions cause great harm to both Aquaman's loved ones and the environment he is sworn to protect? There's only one place to get the answer! Like all the JUST IMAGINE... one-shots, each copy of JUST IMAGINE STAN LEE WITH SCOTT McDANIEL CREATING AQUAMAN has two covers — one by McDaniel & Janson, the other by the award-winning Adam Hughes (WONDER WOMAN). This issue also features an "On the Street" backup story written by Michael Uslan, with art by Ramona Fradon (AQUAMAN, Brenda Starr)! This project is supported with house ads.

It arrives in comic-book stores April 10 with a cover price of $5.95 U.S. BATMAN IN THE FIFTIES TRADE PAPERBACK The Fifties. A decade of hula-hoops, sock hops, UFOs, drive-in movies, atomic paranoia, and Gotham City's greatest hero: Batman! It was a decade in which the Caped Crusader charted through bold new territories and new kinds of adventures! Now the best Batman stories of that era are collected in BATMAN IN THE FIFTIES — a 192-page trade paperback written by Bill Finger, Edmond Hamilton, France Herron, David Vern Reed, David Wood, and Joe Samachson, with art by Dick Sprang, Sheldon Moldoff, Bob Kane, Charles Paris, Stan Kaye, and others. With the success of new technologies, and with American children looking to the limitless possibilities of space, science-fiction entertainment was the talk of the times. As a result, the World's Greatest Detective was destined for newer — and zanier — adventures than ever before, fighting giant robots, kooky aliens and talking apes, just to name a few. And while it may have left the Dynamic Duo's heads spinning, it was ten years of unparalleled fun for kids of all ages! The sixteen tales collected here exemplify this light-hearted time of sci-fi crime-fighting. So please join our hero, along with Robin, Batwoman, Bat-Mite and Ace the Bat-Hound, as we time-travel back to… BATMAN IN THE FIFTIES! This project is supported with house ads.

Against all manner of foe he braved inconceivable odds, ever skirting the line between heroism and death. His name is Dick Grayson, and his earliest adventures as the Boy Wonder, sidekick to the mysterious Batman, are revealed in ROBIN: YEAR ONE — a 200-page trade paperback collecting the hit miniseries written by Chuck Dixon (ROBIN, NIGHTWING) & Scott Beatty (THE JOKER: LAST LAUGH), with art by Javier Pulido (The Incredible Hulk), Marcos Martin (LAST LAUGH, BIRDS OF PREY) & Robert Campanella (BATGIRL). Before he became Nightwing, Dick was the first to don the mantle of Robin. When his parents fell victim to the machinations of a mobster, the young orphan was taken under the wing of millionaire Bruce Wayne — known to a precious few as Gotham's Dark Knight, Batman. For months Grayson trained in the ways of crimefighting, until at last he was ready to patrol the night with his mentor. But the training ground and the threats of the real world are two very different things. For the newly anointed Robin, it would be a baptism of fire. Batman gave Robin purpose, but the evil of the world would shape Dick's destiny. ROBIN: YEAR ONE is the tale of Robin's tragic beginning, which shaped him into one of the world's greatest heroes! ROBIN: YEAR ONE is a 200-page trade paperback, arriving in comic-book stores April 3 with a cover price of $19.95 U.S. YOUNG JUSTICE: "World Without Young Justice" The teen team sensation known as Young Justice first formed as a group in JLA: WORLD WITHOUT GROWN-UPS, where one young boy became the powerful Bedlam, separating the adults and kids of the world into two different Earths. But Robin, Superboy, Impulse, and the rest of the young heroes managed to stop Bedlam's plans…leaving the young boy in a coma ever since. Now the power of Bedlam has reawakened, and returns to change forever the lives of our young heroes in "World Without Young Justice" — a 5-part storyline beginning in April in YOUNG JUSTICE #44. The action then crosses over into IMPULSE #85, ROBIN #101 and SUPERBOY #99, and concludes in YOUNG JUSTICE #45 (solicited next month), with the covers to all five issues by superstar Humberto Ramos! This time around, Bedlam uses his extraordinary powers to stop the origins of the Young Justice members from ever happening…and succeeds! But instead of simply wiping out our heroes from existence, new ones take their place! In YOUNG JUSTICE #44 (written by Peter David with art by Todd Nauck & Lary Stucker), meet the all-new Young Justice, including a bigger Wonder Girl, a male Secret, and a deadly Arrowette! Their mission: to save Jason Todd from being murdered by his parents! In IMPULSE #85 (written by Todd Dezago with art by Carlo Barberi & Walden Wong), we learn that Bedlam has captured Impulse and forced our hero to create hundreds of "scouts" — alternate Impulses running through the time stream creating havoc and changing DCU history! In ROBIN #101 (written by Jon Lewis with art by Rebecca Woods & Andrew Pepoy), Tim finds himself back in Gotham City, but things are amiss — beginning with the triumphant return of…Tim's mom?!? But isn't she dead? Unfortunately things only get stranger from there, as it seems a mystery girl is out there fighting crime…as Robin! Then in SUPERBOY #99 (written by Jimmy Palmiotti & Dan DiDio with art by Anthony Williams & Walden Wong) we rewitness the death of Superman in his battle with Doomsday. In the aftermath, a clone is born. The clone's name? Doomsboy! Wait…Doomsboy?!? So just what has happened to the Young Justice we've grown to know and love?
